I think about the waves of time
How they roll across my shoulders
Thinkin', "No clock is gonna get the best of me"
Minutes, threaten through the years to carve
Wrinkles with my tears across the
Face with strainin' eyes to see
They're lookin' for the peace that passes all understanding
In a world crazed with fear
They say that, "I am much too demanding to want
A better place than here"
So I'll go unto visions of prophets
Gave to me
And I'll dream of heaven (heaven)
The promise in which I believe
Outside are dogs and scoffers
Where they mock my very soul
They tryda steal the Joy of
That promise I own
But I will not be shaken
From the Rock that cleaves to me
I've searched the world
And found there's one thing I need
It's the peace that passes all understanding
In a world crazed with fear
They say that, "I am much too demanding to want
A better place than here"
So I'll go unto visions of prophets
Gave to me
And I'll dream of heaven (heaven)
The promise in which I believe
Was made by the Father, sealed by the blood
With the promise of Spirit, my victory is won
Won't no lion catch me sleepin' (me sleepin')
No, not on the darkest night
Can I say the same for you?
Oh, can you hear 'em creepin'? (Creepin')
No, he's got you in his sights
Oh, what are we to do?
I'll call the world is my Jordan
Someday I'm gonna cross
Ain't no one gonna look and say, "This soul is lost"
So I do my best, tryda tell all the rest
When the lion roars, I'm gonna hide behind the cross
'Cause it's a peace that passes all understanding
In a world crazed with fear
They say that, "I am much too demanding to want
A better place than here"
So I'll go unto visions of prophets
Gave to me
And I'll dream of heaven (heaven)
The promise in which I believe
